The most iconic hairstyles of all times

Jennifer Aniston's haircut as Rachel from 'Friends' was announced for the most influential hairstyle of all time.

In the late 90s and 00s Aniston's hairstyle was widely copied following the success of the TV series. That's why it takes the first place in a poll of 2,000 British women.

Second place in the poll belongs to Marilyn Monroe's platinum blonde bob and 3rd is Amy Winehouse's trademark beehive.

In fourth place was Princess Diana's short blonde crop, which today is still considered stylish and sophisticated. Her daughter-in-law, The Duchess of Cambridge, could only manage 10th spot with her long locks.

60s designer Mary Quant came fifth with her short graphic bob, while sixth place went to eccentric 80s singer Grace Jones.

Seventh is the former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and her famous helmet-like head of hair. Mia Farrow and Annie Lennox occupy the eighth and ninth places.

Almost a third of the women, who took part in the poll said they rarely changed their look, despite 4 in 10 saying they felt more attractive after a cut and 15% worrying about men judging them on their hairstyle.

What all agreed upon is that healthy hair is important with more than a quarter saying greasy hair was particularly unattractive.

Sheryl Franklin-Worth, Corporate Affairs Manager at Amway UK, which conducted the poll, said: 'Having healthy great looking hair increases a woman's confidence and how she feels about herself'.
